Did you know? Each year, about 2,800 home clothes dryer fires are reported. Clean vents cut that risk and help your dryer work better. Schedule now or call (847) 874-4805.

Why Clean Your Dryer Vent?

Lint, dust, hair, and pet fur build up in the vent. As a result, air cannot move. The dryer runs hot. Clothes take longer to dry. Costs go up. Most homes need a pro cleaning once a year. Heavy use or long, twisting ducts may need it more often.

The Six Benefits of Dryer Vent Cleaning

1) Lower the Risk of Home Fires

Lint is dry and flammable. When it blocks the vent, heat builds up. That heat can spark a fire. Clean vents move hot air out fast, so your dryer runs cooler and safer.

Empty the lint screen before and after each load.
Check the outside vent often. Make sure it opens and blows strong air.
Book a full vent cleaning every 12 months.

2) Use Less Energy and Save Money

Clogged vents slow drying. Therefore, each load takes more time and power. A clean vent restores airflow. Your dryer finishes faster and uses less energy.

Shorter dry times
Lower utility bills
Less wear on your appliance

3) Prevent Carbon Monoxide (Gas Dryers)

Gas dryers vent carbon monoxide (CO). If the duct is blocked, CO can back up. That is dangerous. Clean vents let fumes exit outside, as they should. Also, replace your CO detector every 10 years.

4) Protect Your Clothes

Too much heat breaks down fabric. With clear airflow, the dryer uses steady, even heat. Clothes last longer. Colors look better. Towels stay fluffy.

5) Make Your Dryer Last Longer

Heat and strain shorten an appliance’s life. Regular vent cleaning reduces both. As a result, your dryer runs smooth and needs fewer repairs.

6) Stop Clogs Before They Cost You

Clogs cause hot spots, error codes, and breakdowns. Prevent them with routine care. It is faster, cheaper, and easier than fixing a failure later.
